Product Description

This brake pad set made by Akebono fits Audi A6 vehicles made from 2000 through 2004. This pad set includes eight brake pads, shims, and the brake pad wear sensors. The brakes on Audi A6 are the same on all four wheels so this set of four pads will replace the brake pads for the entire vehicle. Problems with braking such as increased stopping distance or brakes that do not respond as well may be fixed by replacing the brake pads. These pads are designed to take the wear of the braking system. They are held in place on either side of the brake rotor by the caliper. When the brakes are engaged, the caliper squeezes the pads against the rotor to stop the car through friction. The rate of wear will depend on driving habits, but regular replacement of the pads should be expected.
